Fancy Blueberry Morning

But more importantly, Katarina cooked it.
(I only helped with cracking eggs and picture interruptions)

Katarina woke up at 6am to cook, and didn't even ask about presents until she was finished...and my heart grew three sizes.

Blueberry Fancy.

Layer Italian bread, blueberries, and cream cheese.

Did you know you can buy eggs in a half dozen? I did not.
(shhh - y'all know I don't cook)

Combine eggs, milk, and vanilla.

Once the wet ingredients are well mixed, they get poured over the layers of bread, blueberries, and cream cheese.

Cook on low for 3-4 hours.

Don't peek until the timer buzzes. (This was the hardest part of the recipe!)

Add a little maple syrup, and it is time to eat. And eat. And eat.

This was the first time Katarina used her new slow cooker, and it was an unquestioned success. Next she wants to try making chicken. I'm pretty sure she got her cooking genes from her dad. I have no complaints.

Was your Christmas breakfast as good as mine?
It's okay to be jealous if it wasn't.

Umm and my question would be exactly why I wasn't invited for Christmas?? I mean good grief that has made my mouth water. We had leftover chili from dinner on Christmas eve. Now you and I both know that chili that has set for a while gets more ummm noisy on the body right.. yeah.. Good thing she wants to cook. coff coff mom.

That sounds great! We(I)always make fresh blueberry muffins for Christmas breakfast. This year, I was sick, and so my husband made them. Delicious. I think blueberries are a thing, right? And I second Tia up there. I have many crock pot recipes I can pass on. Yay for cooking! Before you know it, you'll be buying eggs in an 18 pack!

We did everything backward at Christmas. We had jambalaya for brunch... it was great... and then we had breakfast for upper. I made a crustless quiche, toast and gravy, scrambled eggs, hash browns, and bacon (duh! lol). We had a very peaceful day. Tell Katarina I am very, VERY proud of her. And I may try to make this dish sometime. Also, her slow cooker is beautiful! I love mine. I have two of them. My newer one was a gift from a lady at church and it's pretty too, but plain. lol... Love y'all so much!
